4RE, I mount them in the existing shock holes on the frame and rearend. I have 4 aluminum spacers made for clearance and added strength to the mount. I was concerned about using the existing shock mount for the coilovers so I had an engineer look at the stock setup and how to utilize the existing holes. He said the spacer and a grade 8 bolt will work well since the car is so light in the rear. I'm sure you can order the shocks from any Pro dealer. The cost will probably be close to mine with the mounts and bolts included ($375 +shipping). You don't need to change the upper arms.
